Well I put it in the car today and everything appears to function (couldn't test the fuel gauge without wasting a bunch of fuel obviously) so I'm gonna leave it in the car for a few days and make sure it works. The repair guy email'd me today saying he ordered a new lens for it, not sure if he won the claim or not as he didn't mention either way.

that sucks man, i hate UPS
they always damage my shipments and charge triple duties than anyone else

dakotas mail service can go die in a fire also, its been 4 weeks and i still havent got my parts

lol, i never had a problem with ups or fedex i guess im special. now usps on the other hand, they sometimes dont show up at all

I've been at war with our local UPS delivery guy. He refuses to deliver packages to our shipping dock... I believe this has something to do with the 21 year old secretary. 3 calls into UPS and a meeting with the Union leader later and he'* finally delivering them to the shipping dock but looking for any excuse to get us in trouble. Cited us for a safety violation because one of the cars was parked to close to the dock making the alley too narrow... funny the other 3 fedex/ups trucks have no problem, neither did the SEMI that came through earlier.

YIKES!! this thread has me on pins and needles..ive got a shipment of dvds coming in from amazon shipped via UPS..

Damn i hope my luck is better than yours Brian..

Wow that sucks. The company policy at my work is all delivery trucks that are not flat beds (like lumber, drywall, etc) HAS to use the dock or we don't unload and sign. One of the semis for windows took 20 min getting into dock AND he had a 2nd person with him guiding him in. Both main docks were empty and there was absolutely nothing in front of the dock which has about 200 feet of open concrete space.

USPS isn't much better! here is a pic of how 2 of my new rims showed up and they can't find the other 2!!!!

Well you can't totally blame them for that... you've got to put some padding in a given package

all i gotta say on that is thank god they were N99 wheels and not the QB5'* or aluminum. they had padding where it counted (gotta protect them caps LOL)

still waiting to find out where the hell the other 2 are
